Hi Mald,

It would be unusual for ncl to be working fine, but the sysresfile to
not have been installed. This leads me to believe that maybe your
NCARG_ROOT environment variable is not set correctly.

If you do a "which ncl", does it report being in /usr/local/ncarg/bin,
or somewhere else? If it is somewhere else, then your NCARG_ROOT is
not set correctly.

Something is puzzling here. It looks like your GKS library didn't
build properly, but yet, your "ncl" executable seems to be working,
and this depends on a properly built NCL for this to work.

The error message above indicates that the file
$NCARG/ncarg2d/src/libncarg_gks/cdrivers/fort_c.o didn't get built
into the "libncarg_gks.a" library.

Do you by chance have multiple versions of NCL/NCAR Graphics installed
on your system, but NCARG_ROOT wasn't updated to point to the new
version?
